so... a year and a half ago I moved to a different state and since then i have made no friends here, i just have my boyfriend who i moved here to live with. Then there's his mom who i help take care of, but i wouldn't consider her a friend. I tried volunteering at the humane society but what you do there is go and walk dogs and socialize the cats and stuff, and unless you have a friend to go with you, its a very lonesome job. There's no time frame you can sign up to go with a group, you just go there yourself. Then there was the time I went to an Overeaters Anonymous group but i did not feel like i could really connect or relate to the other people there, I was the youngest one by at least 20 years. I don't have work or school to make friends. i went to a gym for a while but never made friends there. I just really miss my old friends i talk to them online but its not the same! I feel so alone .. i need that social life, not like partying and stuff, but just like a friend or 2 to hang out with sometimes... believe it or not i actually tried craigslist to find friends but all they wanted was sex... ugh, i need people. going back to college next year hopefully that will help. can't wait. even if i don't make any close friends at least i'll be around people... only way I'm around others these days is if i go to walmart. guess I'm done rambling. ty for reading this
